The new home of all things Grinning Skull!
Ok, not so long back I told you about the freebies you can get from artificial grass suppliers in the way of samples, and I promised you that I'd make something with mine, to help inspire you out there with what kind of thing you can do with them when they arrive. Before I start,… Continue reading Terrain Workshop: Artificial Grass field terrain.
Darwin Games new KS is now live, and I for one really dig these great looking mini's. Sculpted by industry veteran Bob Olley, they are highly original and fun. Note to self: add some of these figures to my wish list. I did have a look at these before and thought they were fabulous figures,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Dawn: Rise of the Occulites Kickstarter

As ever, please feel free to comment, add suggestions or any questions you'd like to ask about any aspect… Continue reading Grinning Skull Miniatures: Latest Greens preview
It seems that modular terrain is the soup of the day at the moment,and that everyone's at having a go at making sets for us to spend their money on. The only problem I can foresee like I mentioned before, was that you need to sell some internal organs on the black market to be… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Mythical Lairs Kickstarter
Absolutely stunning stuff here from Manor House Workshop, 28mm terrain at the top end. I fear that most of us can only dream of a custom set up like this, but one can dream! I'm pretty surprised that they have only raised a bit so far, as a lot of what they are offering is… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Manorhouse Workshop on Indiegogo

Not only do they have a wide variety of different themed boards and accompanying card sets, but there are options for custom etched wooden boards. Normally I don't buy download type stuff,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Havoc Risk Boards Kickstarter
So, I have found something out completely by accident that is excellent for us scratch builders & wargamers, yet the best thing is, it wont cost you a penny! A while ago, my missus and I were talking about turfing a few patches of bare earth in our garden and discussing options. Rather than shelling… Continue reading Grim’s Modelling Tips: Fake Grass Freebies!
Now, somehow I don't think this will ever catch on, but at first look at the graphic for this board game, I did think that for some reason this project was something to do with a biblically themed battle (Given the fact it's called "Surrender", quite a dynamic name for a wargame, don't you think?)… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: SURRENDER the Bible Board Game Kickstarter
Here's a good one I forgot to mention, aftermath modular terrain. Looks like a nice simple system that is ideal for all manner of modern, pulp and scifi gaming. Although its a 28mm set, I'd like to imagine that they would consider a 15mm or 20mm version in the future. There's lots of potential here,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Aftermath modular terrain Kickstarter
